Saltwater fish? No, I don't have any, although I was planning to get some after the goldfish problem is resolved. What I know about them is pretty much that they require a large tank (two hundred+ gallons is about right, I think), close attention, constant maintenance, specific and/or expensive food, and a lot of equipment. I'm told you need to let a saltwater tank run for about a month before you can even think of putting fish in. They're not as easy as freshwater fish. A good book on the subject for an introduction is The New Marine Aquarium: Step-By-Step Setup & Stocking Guide (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1890087521/qid=1088007511/sr=ka-1/ref=pd_ka_1/103-7206472-7019060).
